Obligatory Hand-Washing and Temperature Taking for Phnom Penh Restaurant Customers
Follow health guidelines, restaurant owners told
Sen David
May 18, 2020
Phnom Penh governor Khuong Sreng today warned that any restaurants which do not follow health guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19 would be temporarily closed until they comply with regulations.
In a statement, Mr Sreng said the City Hall has noted that some people have thrown caution to the wind and are ignoring safety guidelines because they no longer fear getting infected.
He said some restaurants and food stall owners are also not implementing measures put in place by the Health Ministry to protect themselves and customers.
Mr Sreng said the owners must provide sanitisers for cleaning hands at the entrance of their premises and assign staff to check the temperature of customers before allowing them in.
“In case, the owners of restaurant and food stalls do not implement the instructions, City Hall will close their business temporarily,” he said.

Re: Obligatory Hand-Washing and Temperature Taking for Phnom Penh Restaurant Customers
Some bars in Phnom Penh are revamping as restaurants... even if they don't have a kitchen.
June 8, 2020
Bar owners seek eatery licences to remain open
Khmer Times has found several bars that are getting around COVID-19 closures by changing their registration licences from “bar” to “restaurant” using surrounding food service menus and food app deliveries to justify the change.
The allegations were investigated after several previous and well known “bars” reopened over the past month as “restaurants”, leaving authorities unable to enact forced closures set by the Ministry of Health in March.
The reopened establishments are now advertising food menus, daily drink specials and following hygiene guidelines as required by the Ministry of Health such as temperature checks, hand sanitisers and facial masks at their front doors.
Under the Ministry of Commerce and Ministry of Tourism licensing laws, an existing business can apply to have their current licence changed for a relatively small fee. According to the Ministry of Tourism, a “restaurant” is defined as an establishment that “serves food and beverages, having waiters and waitresses serve several times”.
One such local bar owner, who requested to remain anonymous, said he decided to change his bar to a restaurant last month after he heard the Ministry of Health was going to allow restaurants and cafes to remain open during the pandemic.
“Although my venue doesn’t have a working kitchen, I was able to meet the food requirements of the restaurant license by mirroring a menu from a nearby restaurant.”
“If a customer wants to eat food I use my mobile application to get the dish delivered, then have one of my waitresses transfer the food from the takeaway packaging onto a plate and provide the customer with metal cutlery.”

" meet the food requirements of the restaurant license "
Re: Obligatory Hand-Washing and Temperature Taking for Phnom Penh Restaurant Customers
I have not been to many restaurants that would follow the full guidelines said above, some with hand sanitizer at the entrance, I always tend to wash my hands well before eating and also after. Temperature check, never. Super Duper 24 hour super markets show a good example of there entrance.
Always "hope" but never "expect".

So putting a bbq on the sidewalk might be considered as having a kitchen ?
Don't forget the water buffalo
